From the sold out Royal Albert-Hall in London to the
Alte Oper in Frankfurt, the critics have lavished him with choruses of praise
and the sales figures of his CDs reached record highs. The pianist Ludovico
Einaudi is a master of the art of seduction. With satisfying, clear etched
tones he captures his listeners and ushers them into a sound cinema in their
head, a world of dreams and shades of color. It’s not surprising, since some of
his earliest success was as a film composer. In his concerts he sketches
minimalist sound images, that draws the audience mysteriously away from the
world they are familiar with, leaving them in a dream state.

"Einaudi's compositions are reminiscent of the
songs of Franz Schubert, the improvisational genius of Keith Jarrett and the
delicate musical approach of Philip Glass."(Magazin Klassik)

Acclaimed Italian composer and pianist Ludovico Einaudi performs one of his own compositions on a floating platform in the Arctic Ocean, in front of the Wahlenbergbreen glacier (in Svalbard, Norway). The composition, Elegy for the Arctic, was inspired by eight million voices from around the world calling for Arctic protection. The Greenpeace ship the Arctic Sunrise carried Einaudi, the grand piano and eight million voices to Svalbard.Greenpeace is urging the OSPAR Commission that meets this week (20-24 June, 2016) in Tenerife, not to miss the opportunity to protect international Arctic waters under its mandate.

After his great successs with "Islands" and "In a time lapse" and with his highly acclaimed film music for "The Intouchables" Ludovico Einaudi will publish in October 2015 his new album "Elements". Look at the video of the first single "Night": Link to Universal Music.
